An excerpt from Call me Back # 270 | One Year Since October 7th - with Amir Tibon.

As we arrive at the grim one-year anniversary of 10/07, we are featuring a dedicated series in which we take a longer horizon perspective, asking one guest each week to look back at this past year and the year ahead.

For the fourth installment of this special series, we sat down with Amir Tibon, who is an awardwinning diplomatic correspondent for Haaretz and the author of the newly released book“The Gates of GazaA Story of Betrayal, Survival, and Hope in Israel’s Borderlands.” You can order Amir’s new book here

Amir is also the author of “The Last Palestinian: The Rise and Reign of Mahmoud Abbas” (co-authored with Grant Rumley), the first-ever biography of the president of the Palestinian Authority.

From 2017-2020, Amir was based in Washington, DC as a foreign correspondent for Haaretz, and he also has served as a senior editor for the newspaper’s English edition. He, his wife, and their two young daughters are former residents of Kibbutz Nahal Oz but are currently living as internal refugees in northern Israel. His book tells the harrowing story of his family’s experience on October 7th as well as the history of Israel’s Gaza Envelope communities and of the Gaza Strip.
